Theme and summary.
The new book I am reading: The Witch and the Wizard is a bizarre book. The theme of the book so far is that family comes first.
throughout the text, including at the beginning when the New Order soldiers kidnap the Allgood family, the Allgood family is constantly trying to stay together. The parents are separated from the children, and the reader doesn't know where they are yet, and the children are put in trial for being "Witches and Wizards," The children have been trying to get back to their parents ever since they were taken, and the boy has been trying to get in touch with his girlfriend, Celia.
Throughout the part of the book I have read, the Allgoods are very feared by the people of the new order, and are being sentenced to death by the N.O. for reasons that aren't very clear to the children yet. Where I am at, the children are stuck in a prison with no way out, and are being tortured(ish)
by the prison warden.
My mom bought this book for me like a year ago, and I never read it thinking it would be another one of those boring adult books. Now, you've gotten me re-interested in it and I think I just might read it.
ReplyDeleteWell isn't that kind of mean to kill someone for no clear reason?
